| | Does anyone else think that the viper droid combined with a battle droid offeicer and supperbattle droid commander is the best combo at the moment? Combined both commander effects give the viper +16/+16(30) if it doesnt move. Its great! | |

No. X-1 Viper Droid Battle Droid Officer Super Battle Droid Commander and Grevious, Supreme Commander is the new "best" combo. That way you have +20 30 damage shots [)]

Just would like to point out that the BDO Fire Control is not a Commander Effect. That is what allows it to stack with other Commander Effects. | | | |

| | According to one of the more recent sets of errata on the wotc stite, General Grevious SC Commander CFX, Fire Control and the Superbattledroid Commander CFX all stack. So if you non-uniqe droid doesn't movie it can double attack at +12. [xx(] | | Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul | |

I disagree, think adding Grievous is overkill, for his cost, you can almost fit another Viper droid in. +16 to attack, I feel is good enough to hit most of the time to not warrant the additional +4 to attack. | | | |

Well remember that all depends on what strategy you want, if you are facing high defense enemies (like Vader JH)maybe you need a better attack put grievious that could defend well the nearby position, if you need more fire power use an aditional viper droid. | | Knight of the Quori Champion of King Kaius III of Karrnath

Ive beaten Vader JH, Thrawn squads, Rebels, etc with my 200 ponits sepie squad. If run well, and barring total crap rolls I think its hard to beat. THe only time I have lost with it was to a Nom Vong squad, cause it was non-DCI and I got Vipers stuck in rooms at the start and couldnt move out. | | | |

We play DCI sanctioned events for the most part, so at 200 ponits that leaves us only 1 map. I am looking forward to the new maps being DCI legal though.
